RUSH EXCERPT:
MCNAMEE: "The critical element in thinking about Elon Musk is like any American he has a right to his own opinion and he has a right to express his opinion. However, that right is not unlimited and he is under some special limitations that wouldn’t apply to normal people because his companies, specifically Starink and SpaceX, are government contractors and as such he has obligations to the government that would for any normal person and should for him require him to moderate his speech in the interest of national security. What you have is somebody who runs a really strategic defense and aerospace projects for the federal government who is actively undermining the government which is paying him. Somewhere in there is a legal case that needs to be prosecuted."
